Pool

I got in trouble because I shared my strawberry smoothie with one Mr. Flip the Dog. Let me tell you, he LOVED it. Flip is a fan of Starbucks. The problem is, now Steve can't enjoy his girlie coffee drinks in peace. What you can't see super clearly in this picture is Flip's tongue shooting out to try and get at the whipped cream. You can see Steve moving like lightening to save his frap:

Steve is also sad because, despite the king sized bed, Flip enjoys pushing him slowly but surely off the bed using his needle paws. I woke up this morning to find Steve's knees hanging off the edge of the bed and Flip pressed against him. Meanwhile, I had like 3 acres of bed on other side.

Also, I'm mad at amazon. I tried to get a large baby pool for Flip and Wm to splash and play in this summer. Wm is allowed to go to the real pool any time he wants, but I thought he and Flip would have fun frolicking together in the backyard. A fun summer activity! Well, despite the picture on amazon showing a large dog sitting in the pool with ample room for more dogs/people, what arrived was decidedly NOT that size. Here are Wm and Flip playing in their new pool:



Surprisingly, they both seemed to have a grand time!

Wm said I looked 28. I was very happy until he said our retired neighbor (at least 60) looked "about my age." He did say that Steve looks 34! So, there's that!
